Bernie Sanders: No one asked for my birth certificate

"SNIP..........


WASHINGTON, Jan. 11 (UPI) -- Sen. Bernie Sanders knocked Donald Trump's "birther" campaign against President Barack Obama, noting that Sanders' own father was born in Poland, and yet "nobody has ever asked me for my birth certificate."

Sanders visited Hoover High School in Des Moines, Iowa, on Monday, stumping for his presidential campaign. In response to a student who asked what Sanders thought about immigrants, the Vermont senator attacked Trump.

"As I mentioned to you earlier, my father was born in Poland. Like Obama, I am the son of an immigrant father. Nobody has ever asked me for my birth certificate. Maybe it's because of the color of my skin being different than Obama's," Sanders, I-Vt., said. CNN reported students cheered the response.

Trump was once one of the loudest voices questioning whether Obama was a natural born U.S. citizen.

1. Nice response. n/t

2. Did he then drop the mic?

I wonder if Trump will dare to respond to that one.

I kinda doubt it.

8. Another reason we know the internals are going toward Bernie: Trump's Ire.

Trump has started digging in on Bernie the past two weeks in a big way.

Dude is rich. He can afford polling. He knows the score.

3. He always has such common sense responses to clear invitations to battle.

"Nips them in the bud", as my Dad used to say. There they stand "with their teeth in their mouth"...never quite figured that one out. Wish I could ask him.

4. I like what Obama said at that dinner thingy with Trump present

"No one is happier -- no one is prouder -- to put this birth certificate matter to rest than The Donald," Obama said. "And that's because he can finally get back to focusing on the issues that matter: Like, did we fake the moon landing? What really happened in Roswell? And where are Biggie and Tupac?"

Trump looked like he could spit nails when Obama said that. It had me laughing for days and days and days.

It's cool Bernie is taking a shot at him too. I think we all should be shaming T-Rump because he obviously is in need of some help in feeling it.

5. I loved it when Obama at a dinner thingy said he was going to show his actual birth video. Then they

played the scene from the Lion King where the baboon holds up the new born lion cub in Africa. And all the savannah animals bow down. So funny.

6. OMG yes

I almost cracked a rib laughing.

7. And Obama's set up was so well done. He knew he had a funny moment for all time there.

9. Well even if Bernie wins the election I will miss Obama.

He has the best laugh and the best zingers ever.

11. Yes. Obama is very funny. Thankfully he will be around and doing great things after next year.

Presidents have lives these days after office. And our democratic presidents do amazing things.

10. Our house is built on a hill, so our back deck looks like it's overlooking

the "Back 40."

My son loves to hold up our smaller dogs or cat at times like the Lion King, Why, I don't know. It's a boy thing, I guess.

LMAO.

(And, no, he's not hurting them and doesn't dangle them like Michael Jackson and Blanket. He knows I'd kick his ass for scaring them. Plus, he wouldn't want to scare them. He's a good kid.)

12. I sometimes hold my cats upside down to give them a different perspective on the world. I figure it

can get boring always being held right side up. I'll also hold my cat up to the ceiling so he can look down over his domain.
